Just another #mallardmonday 🦆

Ducks have a special gland positioned near their tails; called the preen gland. The preen gland produces an oil which the ducks rub all over their feathers. This oil creates a barrier so that the feathers do not become waterlogged; thus making the feathers waterproof.

To hunt, a great blue heron will either stand completely still and wait patiently for its prey or it will wade into the water to drive its prey out. When the time is right, it will lunge its neck into the water and usually swallow the prey in one gulp.

Project Dragonfly Observation of the Week: This va

Project Dragonfly Observation of the Week: This variegated meadowhawk was observed by @iNaturalistOrg user anthea2nature near Langley, BC. This species is found from British Columbia east to Ontario, extending south through much of the U.S. to southern California east to Florida. It migrates as far south as Honduras in Central America, and also occurs in eastern Asia.

There’s no mistaking the collective hum as dozen

There’s no mistaking the collective hum as dozens of pollinators busily bounce from flower to flower. But DYK how important these flying powerhouses are to the food we eat?

Bees and other pollinators are vital to Canada's agriculture industry. But in order to thrive, pollinators need the right habitat. One of the most effective ways to increase the local pollination of our crops (and the food we eat) is to keep or restore wetlands, grasslands and other natural areas on the landscape.
